Professor My laboratory is pursuing environmental prediction research, with a focus on various Earth environmental phenomena such as meteorological and hydrological events. I strive to advance the boundaries of this field by integrating Earth observation satellites and employing diverse prediction methods. Specifically, I am committed to enhancing and refining weather forecasts for extended periods of several weeks, and gaining a comprehensive understanding of the long-term impact of climate change on the water resource environment over a century.
To achieve my prediction refinement goals, I employ numerical simulations powered by state-of-the-art supercomputers and harness the potential of machine learning techniques. I will facilitate the fusion of forecast and observation data through statistical mathematics, including data assimilation. My ambition is to pioneer a groundbreaking environmental prediction science by conducting interdisciplinary research that spans earth science, computational science, and statistical mathematics.

The good is the enemy of the best.
Before you can inspire with emotion, you must be swamped with it yourself. Before you can move their tears, your own must flow. To convince them, you must yourself, believe.

Assistant ProfessorMy research themes focus on the water cycle, including precipitation and river runoff. During my doctoral studies, I examined the relationship between geological characteristics of river basins and human activities, and their effect on water dynamics.
Currently, I am also working to enhance global precipitation estimates integrating various observations, such as rain gauges and satellite measurements using data assimilation.
Recent Topics of Interests:
Advancing precipitation estimation and Non-Gaussian data assimilation
